BOC was structurally more interesting but SK modulated in a more interesting way. Tiny edge to the latter.

Yeah, I like BoC, but (and it may surprise you) this Focus track is probably my favourite of all times.

I think the "Shiloh" part is as important as the "Son Kite" one, it's a remix with little connection to the original. Shiloh is a Canadian duo and they made some of the best progressive house/trance there is. And this remix they made, it's perfect for me. The sonic textures taken from the original, the mixing, the progression, the way it's constantly evolving, the intricate rhythms, the echoed chords, everything, it simply makes sense.
Of course, I know it's a style that doesn't appeal to every one but please give it a chance nonetheless.

Yeah maybe it's a bit of BoC overload or I'm just feeling a bit UnlikeOtherGirls, but at this moment I like the Son Kite track a bit more and it gets my vote

3 songs in this tourney seemed like a lot for an atmospheric album-centric band.

i'm hoping for a BoC-BoC final, haha.

i mean, i agree that 3 is a bit much. i nominated music is math even after davytan cowboy was in, but i just don't see the cowboy getting as far as math.... feeling the need to justify myself, i guess.

Yeah that Shiloh remix was excellent. Wouldn’t mind if it got further than all 3 BoC tracks.

I'll go with BOC. Thought I would be getting some ambient techno fatigue by now but I enjoyed that track. The house track would be good in da club for sure but it didn't really engage my interest this time around.
